  • Patent number: 9988823
    Abstract: A concrete forming system for reducing the time and labor required for the framing, pouring, and curing of concrete walls. The concrete forming system generally includes concrete forms including a first wall, a second wall opposing the first wall, and a pair of sidewalls. A cavity is formed between the walls; with an opening being fluidly connected to the cavity. A first vehicle is connected to the first wall and a second vehicle is connected to the second wall. Using the vehicles, the positioning and orientation of the walls may be adjusted. After the walls have been placed and oriented, the vehicles will hold the walls in place as concrete is poured into the cavity through the opening. The concrete is allowed to cure into a structure; after which the vehicles and walls may be moved to another location to repeat the process.

  • Patent number: 6290071
    Abstract: An air separator system for separating particulate material into coarse and fine particles without utilizing water. The inventive device includes a trailer, a support frame pivotally attached to the trailer, a tapering body having an outer wall and an inner wall, a motor secured to the body, a funnel connected to a center tube rotatably attached within the body, and a fan structure attached to the lower portion of the center tube for agitating and blowing upon particulate material that enters the funnel from a feed conveyor. A plurality of upper regular members are pivotally attached within the upper portion of the outer cavity created between the outer wall and the inner wall for adjusting the amount of air flow into the outer cavity. A plurality of lower regulator members are attached within the inner wall for allowing the air to return upwardly toward the fan structure during operation to lift the lighter particulate material.
